Di San Xian - literally 'three fresh things from the earth' - is a stir fry of potatoes, peppers, and eggplant. Those're either pan-fried or deep-fried, then served with a garlicky sauce.
It's a classic northern homestyle dish, and as a homestyle dish there's... a lot of different ways to go about it. This video is just one of a myriad of possible recipes. So if you have your own recipe for Di San Xian, toss it in the comments!

ABOUT US

Learn how to cook real deal, authentic Chinese food! We post recipes every Tuesday (unless we happen to be travelling) :)
We're Steph and Chris - a food-obsessed couple that lives in Shenzhen, China. Steph is from Guangzhou and loves cooking food from throughout China - you'll usually be watching her behind the wok. Chris is a long-term expat from America that's been living in China and loving it for the last eleven years - you'll be listening to his explanations and recipe details, and doing some cooking at times as well.
This channel is all about learning how to cook the same taste that you'd get in China. Our goal for each video is to give you a recipe that would at least get you close to what's made by some of our favorite restaurants here. Because of that, our recipes are no-holds-barred Chinese when it comes to style and ingredients - but feel free to ask for tips about adaptations and sourcing too!
